I'm a bit stuck for ideas really, got a boys list as long as your arm.
I would love an unusual biblical girls name, unfortunately my boring conservative DH will not agree to something really different.
I've trawled the usual baby name websites to no avail....
All suggestions welcome, thanks.

Jemima - youngest daughter of Job. Also, Hebrew for "dove".

I know a little girl called Zillah pronounced z-eye-la...it's really pretty and rhymes well with Elijah!

It isn't Biblical, but what about Bethia, which is the English form of the Hebrew name Batya? It means 'daughter of God'.
